Prizes will be presented every weekend until June 9 for those with the largest tail or white seabass!

The Queen of the Derby, Chanelle, for 2013 was crowned at the kick off party on May 5. She was crowned with the assistance of the 1963 queen, Kathryn Harris Badua. The kick off party was the largest since the Derby’s rebirth, so you can imagine the tournout for the Awards Party! The awards party will be held at the Bali Hai in San Diego on June 9 from 2-4pm. The winner of the “weigh-in-of-the-winning-Angler” will receive their weight in Ballast Point Pale Ale!
